There is a dependency overview under Settings->Admin but I'm not sure how complete it is, my idea for to future is to give all apps an appinfo/depend.php (or something simular) where they check and return the status of their dependencies. Also, exif is no longer a hard dependency but optional. - Robin Appelman _______________________________________________ Owncloud mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/owncloud
